I was trying to find the articles I read to explain the train of thoughts that lead me to LMT.
I read
this and
this within the same week and set about this weekend to learn more about the Russell 1000 stocks in the 2nd quintile.
There was another article, which I can't find again, that said to seek out slightly beaten stocks whose company's culture believed in dividends when dividend hunting. So I paid special attention to stocks that dropped during the flash crash on May 6th and were having a hard time getting up again (because they are unloved?).
Also around the same time that FedEx announced it was cutting 100 centers and laying off 1000 ppl (much loved, stock moved up on this gloomy news) I remember reading a snippet that Lockheed Martin was hiring 1700 ppl.
No more time to post now - off to work.
